There are about 36633 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in France. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
Impact of unilateral modulation of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus on freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease
The Cardioband Transcatheter System (Cardioband) is indicated for the treatment of secondary (functional) mitral regurgitation (FMR). The Cardioband is a transcatheter system, deployed on the beating heart through a transseptal approach. The Cardioband is deployed along the posterior annulus of the mitral valve (MV) and is adjusted under trans-esophageal guidance on the beating heart. A CE mark study with 30 subjects has been completed and documented reduction of severity of mitral regurgitation (MR) and improvement in 6- minute walk test in subjects with moderate to severe MR. Study objectives are to test the efficacy of the Cardioband in improving MR and heart failure symptoms in patients with symptomatic (New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III-IVa), severe MR in the post-marketing setting, And to evaluate the safety of the Cardioband system in the post-marketing setting.
The purpose of this study is to confirm that the pharmacokinetics of ibrutinib in pediatric participants is consistent with that in adults (part 1) and to assess efficacy (event-free survival [EFS]) of ibrutinib in combination with rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide (RICE) or rituximab, vincristine, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and idarubicin (RVICI) background therapy compared to RICE or RVICI background therapy alone (part 2).
This is a multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-arm dietary intervention study. In total, 800 men and women at risk for Metabolic Syndrome (MS) will be recruited. Subjects will be eligible to the study if they present with two to four of the MS diagnostic criteria, at least one of them being: - fasting triglycerides ≥150 mg/dL but ≤400 mg/dL OR - HDL-cholesterol ≤50 mg/mL in women, ≤ 40mg/mL in men (with fasting triglycerides ≥110 mg/dL). Each of the four recruiting centres will recruit 200 volunteers. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups to receive either: - Dairy BEF + egg placebo + bakery placebo - Egg BEF + dairy placebo + bakery placebo - Bakery BEF + dairy placebo + egg placebo - Dairy, egg and bakery placebo Participants will be required to consume all three of the allocated products each day for 12 weeks. Eligible volunteers will be included and randomly allocated to one of the four groups. At baseline, 6 weeks and 12 weeks after inclusion, each participant will visit the recruiting centre for clinical and biochemical investigations. At 3 weeks and 9 weeks participants will complete questionnaires relating to their satisfaction with the food products, compliance to consumption of the study food products, and any gastrointestinal side effects or health-related adverse events that have occurred in the previous 3 weeks. At each recruiting centre 40 participants will be required to take part in additional activities, these are: stool sample collection, adipose tissue aspiration, body composition analysis by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and assessment of physical activity.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of entospletinib (ENTO) on the best overall response rate in adults with chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) who are currently receiving systemic corticosteroids as part of first-line therapy for cGVHD.
Background: Obesity increasingly affects young women and contributes to increased maternal, fetal and neonatal complications. Maternal obesity contributes to the subsequent development of childhood obesity not only through social and environmental mechanisms but also through biological processes referring to the original concept of the developmental health and disease. Data suggest that management during pregnancy through nutrition counseling and adequate physical activity will help to break the familial vicious circle of obesity. To help program to be effective it is important to understand the factors that modulate participation. However, few studies have been conducted to assess the determinants that influence participation. Goal: The main objective is to analyze 15 factors that influence participation in a program combining physical activity and nutritional counseling among pregnant women with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2. Secondary objectives are : - to identify the data that influence adherence and to show that assiduous women will have a better control of weight gain and a reduction of maternal and fetal complications. - to understand the biological mechanisms involved Strategy and method: A prospective research evaluating the participation in an educational program, including nutritional support and adequate physical activity, will be offered to overweight and obese pregnant women. The program will last 12 weeks, and will include three workshops on diet of the pregnant and lactating women, and the young child. Physical activity sessions will be offered once a week. Fifteen independent variables likely to influence participation will be analyzed. The association between participation and the risk of maternal and fetal pregnancy complications related to obesity will be analysed. Meanwhile, more fundamental research will be considered to determine of the biological factors involved.
Conventional vertebroplasty is an effective option in the treatment of bone lesions (osteoporotic and neoplastic). It is indicated as an analgesic treatment and aims at reinforcing a compressed vertebrae or at risk of fracture. The main adverse event related to vertebroplasty use is the cement leakages that might be responsible for significant clinical impairments. Kyphoplasty is a recent alternative strategy of vertebroplasty, based on the insertion on balloon through the needle into the targeted vertebrae and then inflation of the balloon prior to cement injection into the space. In an osteoporotic setting, kyphoplasty allow reducing the incidence of cement leakage. To date, no data from randomized study are available in the population of cancer patients.
The study aims to evaluate the biochemical and clinical effectiveness on symptoms and tumor size of a monotherapy with Lanreotide 120mg in acromegalic subjects, to describe criteria for starting alternative strategies, and to describe the modalities and the global effectiveness of alternative strategies.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of 29 intravenous infusions of CER-001 vs. placebo, given at weekly (9 infusions) and biweekly (20 infusions) intervals on carotid vessel wall area as measured by 3TMRI, when administered to patients with familial primary hypoalphalipoproteinemia with proven CVD and appropriate background lipid-lowering therapy.
This is a Phase 3, Open-label, Randomised, Active-controlled, Parallel Group, Multicentre Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of PA21 (Velphoro®) and Calcium Acetate (Phoslyra®) in Paediatric and Adolescent CKD Patients with Hyperphosphataemia. The aim of this Phase 3 clinical study is to demonstrate similar efficacy of PA21 (Velphoro) in paediatric and adolescent patients with CKD, and to provide safety and dosing information for this patient population. The Phoslyra (comparator) group provides information for a descriptive comparison of PA21 against a commonly used calcium-based phosphate binder (calcium acetate).
